I have been single for 3 year since my ex walked out and disappeared (no contact) leaving me to raise the children on my own. Over that time I decided I would stay single until my children have grown up. However recently I developed feelings for someone (cant go there for certain reasons!) but ive developed a crush and its made me realise that I dont want to stay single and that I am ready to start dating.
There seems to be alot of people though that think single mothers shouldnt date until their children are older, but im only 30 and so im not sure how realistic it is to not date at all till my 40s!
It just seems so very hard and, frankly impossible to date as a single parent when you dont have much child care help. Even then you’re not suppose to introduce the man until a year or so. Aibu to think its impossible and just give up and stay single? can you be happy and single?
